The Crown vs Shakespeare Details
About the Author David Abbey is a semi-retired psychologist and Emeritus Professor (OISE/University of Toronto) who has been writing stage and screenplays for a number of years. He recently (2014) published "Heloise and seven plays". David lives in Guelph, Ontario, Canada with his wife Susan Dafoe-Abbey - an active psychotherapist, parent educator and marriage and family therapist. They share six children and 11 grandchildren whose homes are spread out between Nanaimo, British Columbia and St. John's, Newfoundland. The "Crown vs Shakespeare" is the result of nearly a year of reasonably intensive research into the truth (or not) of the allegation that Shakespeare was anti-Semitic - a charge which David has found troubling since he was in secondary school and learned that some schools refused to perform or even to discuss the play "The Merchant of Venice".
